Reflections on the "New American" Revolution
Friday, November 28, 2003
Iraqi citizens are fighting the US occupation: "Despite all accusations that they are terrorists, these are Iraqi citizens who are fighting the occupation,'' Prime Minister Naji al-Otari said in remarks were published Friday in the Egyptian magazine Al-Mussawar."
We don't know who is fighting the US in Iraq. The army commanders have admitted that. So have some of our political leaders. Therefore it is reasonable to assume that some of them may be freedom fighters, and not "saddam loyalists" or "insurgents" or al Qaida.
That should give us pause. Do we want to fight ordinary Iraqi's? Surely, if we have liberated them, and they want us to leave, then we would be a hostile occupation to them if we stay.
